We had a wonderful time on the Hannah Marie with Captian Jimmy and the ladies. Jimmy provided a brief history of the are and also gave restaurant recommendations that were very helpful. The entire crew had sharp eyes and pointed out so many dolphins. Jimmy brought the boat so close to them. We got many pictures and videos of the dolphins including a sweet little baby dolphin. Our 3:30 time slot was the perfect time to watch the sunset over the gulf in November. Our tour was a smaller party so we were able to move around the boat very freely to get different views. We had the perfect evening and are planning another tour when we come back to Destin.

We have been coming to Destin for 7 years, taking dolphin cruises every time. This was by far the best!!! The captain knew how to engage the dolphins and get them to follow in the wake, jumping and playing. It was amazing! I wish I could remember his name! Jen and Jen were working also! They were great!

The cruise was very nice and we saw lots of dolphins. The captain did a good job of narration and positioning the boat so everyone could see the dolphins.
Amazing sunset cruise!

It was an amazing time yesterday at the sunset cruise. The crew was extremely friendly. We saw so many dolphins before we even left the bay and even more in the Gulf of America. This was our first time and not the last. We are already making plans for next year. Thank you all for a amazing trip.

Shame on Viator! The dolphin cruise we went on was great. But Viator charged us $14.00 more than the activity originally would have cost had we booked it in person. That might not seem like a whole lot, but if you’re taking a family of 4, 5, 6? 10? That’s $14 extra per PERSON and that adds up exponentially fast! How can you sleep at night knowing that these crews work for tips and all the extra money that could have gone to them went to lining the pockets of the CEO and higher ups of your third party company?
